The IC Capture prof will no longer be available officially. You may contact The Imaging Source directly, but I am not sure, whether we will provide a license. We got too much support for not working third party devices.

I can believe this! There are truly a huge number of non-standard WDM, web cams, etc. on the market. Most are called "industry standard" BUT require their own proprietary software to work...

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for that inormation, I have contacted IS direct. I was alerted to this by Gary Honis, a well-known modifier of web cams and such. I have four IS cameras, three Firewire and one USB AS, each one different.
This is what I acheived with one donated by IS back in 2007.

Edit/Delete Message

Many of these cameas use also DirectShow standard, but often we encounter problems, that interfaces are not implemented correctly, thus we receive an access violation. Some of them we are able to catch, but in worst case we receive a BSOD if we ask the camera for its properties.

As I wrote above, at this time, I do not know the company's policy about how to proceed with the professional version of IC Capture.
